Well, Nate just updated: "Obama's weak showing in Miami-Dade's first round of early voting was overcome in a second batch. Obama's now ahead 62-38, ahead of Obama's 57-41 victory in 2008. Once again: these are early votes, and it remains to be seen whether the early vote is representative of the overall electorate. "

I'm watching Virginia and remembering how everyone was calling it for Macaca but Jim Webb snuck up and smacked his ass. Literally with votes.

Lizzie, I hope so, but Nate Cohn reports: Miami-Dade stands out as an area of concern for the Obama campaign. The president leads by just a narrow margin in early voting, even though Obama won by 16 points in 2008. As is the case elsewhere in the state, it remains to be seen whether early votes are representative of the electorate as a whole. But it might also be a sign that Obama is struggling among Cubans, a possibility suggested by many polls.

We'll see soon enough.
